Best trails in Dovrefjell-Sunndalsfjella National Park
Dovrefjell-Sunndalsfjella National Park is full of wildlife, including wild reindeer, wolverines, arctic foxes, ravens and golden eagles. It is home to the country's oldest reindeer herd and even the only Norwegian musk ox tribe.
The national park provides numerous opportunities for outdoor activities. You can explore the area on foot or on skis. The park has an extensive network of marked trails, along with several cabins, making it accessible year-round.
The highest point in the national park is Snøhetta, which stands at 2,286 m.a.s.l. A hike to this peak is a definite highlight of the park. The climb is straightforward, thanks to a well-marked trail that starts from the Reinheim cabin on the south side. For a more relaxed option, you can visit the viewpoint at the wild reindeer visitor center, Viewpoint Snøhetta.
Of particular interest is the population of musk oxen. They are usually easy to spot, especially along the route to Reinheim cabin from Kongsvoll Fjellstue.
